if you go to Go Lo their is usually a set of forks in their i found and they are $1.99 for 4 forks, the Times bend ok they are not super weak but are not super strong i think they are prfect but just try going down to a Go Lo and checkinig it out

Go Lo?? WTH is that? There is nothng named that in my area. Also that would be more expensive than what I am paying now for 36. Would be $18 plus tax. I get 36 for $7.00 but the shipping is what makes it about $16. If I find them at a restaurant supply store, I will be set.

i bought a bunch of dominion forks off amazon.com but they're not so flexible, you can't do the corkscrew with them. I thought it was i wasn't strong enough but last night at was at the silver diner and the forks on their tables worked perfect i was even able to do the corkscrew and when i checked the brand they were dominion forks and looked just like mine, but weren't so hard to bend. does anyone know where i can get those kind of dominion forks and not the hard ones?

I just got my dominion forks from Amazon.(costly shipping.i dont like that)

And they are pretty good. Bend easily but not as easily as I had imagined. Also, it requires a lot of strength and a napkin to do the corkscrew. Its impossible to do it barehanded.

Are there any better, more flexible forks available? And are these the same ones that Morgan uses in the video? Because these seem like the hard batch one...I wanted the soft batch.Also, if anyone has actually performed with these forks , could you please give your experience. Was it easy enough to bend the forks in real time? Since if its not, the fork wont get completely bent and that would surely be a problem.

Any comments would be greatly appreciated.

PS. I am surprised that there is no other discussion board for this other than this one.

akirafist, I feel that I should have seen yr review before buying my dominion forks.Mine say "next day gourmet Med Wt Dominion" on the back. And they are hard to bend. I simply cannot do the corkscrew with them.I like the stars and stripes one you reviewed but the shipping cost is again too much. I dont know what to do about that. It cost like $8 for shipping whereas the forks are $3, so doesnt seem wise to buy them.

I just hope that I develop the fingerstrength in some time like Zambini said.

cooldude9119: hit Google and find a restaurant supplier near you. Visit them, and try out all the forks. If you cannot find one, go to nearby restaurants/bars and try their forks, ask where they got them once you find a good one.

[*] HEAVY Dominion Dinner Fork (WINCO Item No: 0014-05). Those are also sold simply as "Dominion Donner Forks" and at a casual glance they look the same, but as a beginner to this trick, I could not twist them. Don't get those.

So be sure you got the right ones.

Another thing I myself stumbled over following the Liquid Metal routine: When Morgan puts the corkscrew in, he shows it with a pretty fluid motion, due to his long training, so it is not easy to see exactly how he does it. It looked to me at first as if he bend the fork 90 degrees and the bent it sideways for the corkscrew. But that's not how he does it and it does not work like that.Instead, he bends it further back first, so the fork handle almost points in the same direction as the head, and then does the sideways twist. That works much better, and the twist is a full 180 degrees instead of the 90° you would get otherwise.

And a third advice: To me, it works better if you do the initial 90 degree bend over a wider part of the handle. Meaning you want a long gentle curve, not a sudden 90 degree bent. The gentle curve corkscrews much better.
